V1 and V2 stand for version 1 and version 2, check the chords at
the bottom. I've tried to make it as accurate as possible, but
you’ll have to listen to the record to figure out
the rhythm/tempo, and you can play either A
(which is the version written) or the A-Asus2-A-Asus2-A
rhythm in the chorus, whichever you think sounds best.
Here are the chords and lyrics:
A Bm7/D E
Short sleeves and warm skin
A Bm7/D E
Losing coins calling next of kin
A Bm7/D E
Dropping words about the city we’re in
Bm E
Ponds compressed by heavy air
Bm E
Us without care just sprawling there
Bm Dbm Dm (v1)
God’s in our world
A Asus2 A Asus2 A Bm7 E
Air - ports and undergrounds
A Asus2 A Asus2 A Bm7 E
Waiting to find the un - found
A Asus2 A Asus2 A Bm7 E
Ri - sing to pure insanity
